Solar farms to supply the grid, solar on your house to supply your usage at home and on your business for when you are at work. Now use that energy for your electric car (a Tesla perhaps?) but now put solar on your electric car! That is exactly what Ford is going to do and unveil at the CES show next year. As a business point, I drive a volt and have a US Bank operating lease (they took the $7,500 tax credit) for the car. Maybe solar on a car will present a lease opportunity for residential lease providers? Any lawyers want to opine on the ITC for solar cars?
